It's been said to me that I'm self-destructive because I'll walk away from things that are good.

I have a hard time repeating myself.

I was a snot-nosed teenage skater at one point, who listened to only punk records and hung around people that had that idea of what is okay to do and what isn't okay to do.

The goal is to make something that sounds new and different.

I like to find an artist who inspires me and get into their world and challenge them.

If the chemistry between me and the artist is good, then that's half the battle.

Im still an idealist. My manager is always trying to talk me out of it, but thats just the way I am.
